Visual characteristicsNormally a hard, thin-walled smooth fabric with small white limestone inclusions, buff (7.5YR 7/4) in colour |
PetrologySamples from the kiln at Keratokambos in southern Crete were found to contain chert and limestone but were lacking in mica (Riley, 1979). A number of samples from Benghazi all contained plentiful mica, together with quartz and limestone (Peacock & Williams, 1986: Class 41). |
